Ordinance 92-2783 of the City of Miami Beach requires that any proposed sale of city-owned land, including the vacation of a right-of-way, be analyzed from a planning perspective in order that the City Commission and the public are fully apprised of all conditions relating to the proposed vacation of the right-of-way. What follows, herein, are each of the eight criteria prescribed in said ordinance and a response to each: 1. Whether or not the proposed use is in keeping with City goals and objectives and conforms to the City Comprehensive Plan. The proposed vacation and abandonment of the north-half of the Lincoln road right-of-way in favor of the adjoining DiLido property is subject to the granting by the DiLido Beach Corp. to the City an access easement on Lincoln Road. Thus, the granting of the easement ensures the continued public use of the former right-of-way and does not contravene the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. 2. The impact on adjacent property, including the potential positive or negative impacts such as diminution of open space, increased traffic, noise level or enhanced property values, improved development patterns and provision of necessary services. Based on the proposed use of the property, the City shall determine the potential impact of the project on City utilities and other infrastructure needs and the magnitude of costs associated with needed infrastructure improvements. Should it become apparent that further evaluation of traffic impact is needed, the proponent shall be responsible for obtaining a traffic impact analysis from a reputable traffic engineer. The vacation of the right-of-way and subsequent granting of the City easement will not diminish any open space. The proposed improvements to the City easement should have a positive effect, in terms of property value, to the surrounding area. 3. A determination as to whether or not the proposed use is in keeping with a public purpose and community needs, such as expanding the City's revenue base, reducing City costs, creating jobs, creating a significant revenue stream and improving the community's overall quality of life. The proposed vacation of the Lincoln Road right-of-way is part of the DiLido Development agreement. The improvements in the vacated right-of-way, in addition to the permanent pedestrian easement at the eastern end of Lincoln Road through the DiLido property for access by the public to the beach, is in keeping with a public purpose and community needs. 4. Determination as to whether or not the development is in keeping with the surrounding neighborhood, will block views, or create other environmental intrusions, and evaluation of the design and aesthetic considerations of the project. The only development of the vacated right-of-way involves landscape and circulation improvements. The existing views of the Lincoln Road street end are not affected. Indeed, the proposed improvements, in addition to the creation of a pedestrian easement at the end of Lincoln Road, extend the view corridor to the dune and beach area. 5. The impact on adjacent properties, whether or not there is adequate parking, street, and infrastructure needs. The use of the vacated right-of-way as a City easement will not have an impact on parking nor will it affect the city's infrastructure. 6. A determination as to whether or not alternatives are available for the proposed disposition, including assembly of adjacent properties, and whether the project could be accomplished under a private-ownership assembly. There are no other viable alternatives for the right-of-way. The proposed easement back to the City ensures that the public access to the area remains. 7. Within the constraints of public objectives, the department should examine financial issues such as job generation, providing housing opportunities, and the return to the City for its disposition of property. The proposed vacation of the right-of-way will help effectuate the development agreement which will include the improvements to Lincoln Road and the renovation of the adjoining DiLido property as a high quality hotel facility. This will create temporary jobs during the construction phase and permanent jobs in the hotel service industry. As part of the development agreement the DiLido Beach Corporation will expend $500,000 for the improvements to Lincoln Road. This represents a substantial savings to the City. 8. Such other items as the Planning Department may deem appropriate in analysis of the proposed disposition. Planning Staff has determined that the reconstruction and redevelopment of the DiLido property and the improvements to Lincoln Road and the creation of a permanent pedestrian beach access will have direct benefits to the City. The improvements will rehabilitate a major intersection in the City. The improvements to the Lincoln Road easement will preserve the architectural scale of the existing structures. The proposed vacation and subsequent improvements is consistent with the City's ongoing redevelopment of the area and will positively influence the character of the future development in the surrounding area.

" ~ 1 I ,', :;ITY OF MIAMI BEACH :ITY HALL 1700 CONVENTION CENTER DRIVE MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA 33139 COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 39'g'-9g TO: Mayor Neisen O. Kasdin and Members of the City Co mission DATE: June 17, 1998 FROM: Sergio Rodriguez City Manager SUBJECT: A RESOL I OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, APPROVING THE VACATION OF THE NORTH PORTION OF LINCOLN ROAD, EAST OF COLLINS AVENUE, IN FAVOR OF DI LIDO BEACH HOTEL CORPORATION, IN EXCHANGE FOR A LINCOLN ROAD ACCESS EASEMENT, TO BE GRANTED TO THE CITY BY DI LIDO BEACH HOTEL CORPORATION ,. FOR PUBLIC PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICULAR TRAFFIC, ON, ACROSS, AND. THROUGH THE PROPOSED VACATED PROPERTY; A PERMANENT PEDESTRIAN EASEMENT FOR ACCESS BY THE PUBLIC FROM THAT CERTAIN PORTION OF LINCOLN ROAD LYING EAST OF THE EASTERN RIGHT-OF-WAY LINE OF COLLINS AVENUE, THROUGH THE DI LIDO PROPERTY, TO THE BEACH; AS WELL AS CERT AIN LINCOLN ROAD IMPROVEMENTS, TO BE PROVIDED PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THAT CERTAIN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND DI LIDO BEACH HOTEL CORPORATION; PROVIDING THAT SAID VACATION SHALL BE EFFECTIVE AT THE TIME OF THE "SECOND CLOSING," AS SAME IS DEFINED IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT; WAIVING THE REQUIREMENTS OF APPRAISALS AND COMPETITIVE BIDS IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVAL OF SAID VACATION; AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY CLERK TO EXECUTE ALL DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO EFFECTUATE SAID V ACA TION. ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution. BACKGROUND: On July 26, 1989, the Land Use and Development Committee set the guidelines/criteria for considering right-of-way and easement vacation requests, and recommended a case-by-case consideration of these applications. Additionally, in June 1992, the City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 92-2783 governing the sale and/or lease of City property. As set forth in the above criteria and requirements for vacation and conveyances of City property, and as contemplated in the Development Agreement approved by AGENDA ITEM r2-. 1 B DATE (, - Il-Cf ~ the City Commission on May 20, 1998, pursuant to Resolution No. 98-2275, Oi Lido Beach Hotel Corporation (Di Lido) has submitted a request that the City vacate the north half of Lincoln Road, east of Collins A venue, in exchange for, among other things, a Lincoln Road Access Easement from Oi Lido to the City, for public pedestrian and vehicular traffic through the proposed vacated property (the Lincoln Road Access Easement); a permanent, continuous pedestrian easement for access by the public from the Lincoln Road Access Easement area, through the Oi Lido Property, to the beach (the Di Lido Easement); as well as certain Lincoln Road Improvements, to be provided by Di Lido pursuant to the provisions of the Development Agreement. ANAL YSIS: Pursuant to the requirements for vacation of City-owned property, as well as the requirement of Ordinance No. 92-2783, on June 3, 1998, the City Commission scheduled a public hearing to consider the proposed vacation request, to be held during the June 17, 1998, Commission meeting. Additionally, as required by Ordinance No. 92-2783, the City's Planning Department has prepared the attached analysis with regard to the proposed vacation. The City, in exchange for vacating the north hal:f:.'of Lincoln Road, east of the Collins Avenue right-of-way, will obtain (among other things) from Di Lido, the adjacent property owner (1669 Collins Avenue), a permanent pedestrian public access easement to the beach (the Di Lido Easement); certain Lincoln Road Improvements, east of Collins Avenue; and permanent easement rights over the proposed vacated City right-of-way (the Lincoln Road Access Easement). Ordinance No. 92-2783 also requires an advertised public bidding process for the sale or lease of City property, and an appraisal of the fair market value of the property. Since, by operation of law, upon vacation of a right-of-way the property vests in the adjoining property owner, the right-of-way cannot be sold or leased to a third party. (See Smith v. Horn, 1915, 70 So.2d 435; Attorney General Opinion 078-118.) The Administration would herein recommend that it is in the best interest of the City to waive these requirements; pursuant to the Ordinance, a 517ths vote is needed to waive these requirements. Additionally, the Administration would recommend that the aforestated vacation be effective at the time of the "Second Closing," and only if the Second Closing occurs, as same is defined in the Development Agreement. Should the Development Agreement expire or terminate as more particularly provided therein, then the vacation shall be null and void and of no further force or effect. Accordingly, the Second Closing, as contemplated in the Development Agreement, should be a condition precedent to the vacation of the requested portion of Lincoln Road. CONCLUSION: The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission approve the vacation of the north portion of Lincoln Road, east of Collins A venue, in favor of Di Lido, in exchange for a Lincoln Road Access Easement, to be granted to the City by Di Lido for public pedestrian and vehicular traffic, on, across, and through the proposed vacated property; a permanent pedestrian 2 easement for access by the public from that certain portion of Lincoln Road lying east of the eastern right-of-way line of Collins Avenue, through the Di Lido Property, to the beach; as well as certain Lincoln Road Improvements, to be provided pursuant to the provisions of the Development Agreement between the City and Di Lido. The Administration further recommends that the "Second Closing," as same is defined in the Development Agreement, be a condition precedent to the vacation, and that the requirements of appraisals and competitive bids in connection with the approval of said vacation be waived, by Sl7ths vote, as required pursuant to Ordinance No. 92-2783. Finally, the City Commission should authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all documents necessary to effectuate said vacation subject to review of same by th~- Administration and City Attorney's Office. \ f\.j SR\HM\JA:..dP\ VGK\ch FIA TTOIAGUj!.1";;SOSIUNCV AC.MEM Attachment ". 3 Prepared by and Return to: STATE OF FLORIDA COUNTY OF DADE: I, ROBERT PARCHER, City Clerk of City of Miami Beach, Florida, do hereby certify that the above and foregoing is a true anej correct copy of the originsi thereof on file in this office.
